It's been a pleasure over the past while to watch as RowHouse grew and changed and inevitably found its feet. Fronted by Alex Tapia - previously of Bayonet - RowHouse has finally settled itself into a comfortable groove as a two-piece. Manning the drums are Gary Kawamura, of the jazz outfit Taxi Driver, and on guitar is Tapia. Musically, there's nothing outrageous or exotic about RowHouse. Essentially, they're an indie rock band with elements of the Black Keys and other minimalist projects. What remains a draw about RowHouse is the infectious energy of Tapia, who frequently seems to barely conceal his delight at performing in front of a crowd. This event marks the release of RowHouse's debut self-titled EP, as well as a fashion show for the vintage menswear collective, Feather & Oar.

ROWHOUSE, 8 p.m., 21+, The Broken Spoke, 1014 S. Martin Luther King Jr. Way, Tacoma, no cover, 253.219.7746
